Its possible to stick your tongue inside your nose from inside your mouth. I am among quite a few people that can do it and clean the inside of the nose from boogers.
How you ask? Here is the Wikipedia page about that, because if course there is one:

This is the worst thing I have read today.
Lucky you!
Can't everybody stick their tongue to the base of the nasal cavity? My tongue just can't go in.
Its not that bad x)
Of all the things, this is the. Worst. Possible. Thing.
Apparently if your tongue isn't long or flexible enough, the Wikipedia has suggestions, ranging from months of flexing and tongue exercises, to just fucking snipping your frenulum.
"It is possible" lmao, like yeah, it's also "possible" to put my dick in my butt if I cut my ass off and hold it in front of me XD
No.
Yes xD
Usually these TIL threads give me nothing new.
This one is new to me. Thanks.
My pleasure. XD
I'm at third stage! I've been hiding my tongue behind my uvula since I was a kid. My dentist hated it!
I never thought of it as stretching... I guess I have a new hobby!
Also helps reduce the gag reflex. ;)

Your tongue game must be legendary. Lucky partner.
It is but she does not even entertain that idea sadly.
Have you tried putting it in something other than noses?
I don't think my tongue is long enough for this
Takes trying for a few days to stretch your tongue to get it far enough back.
Keep stretching!
Why would someone want to do this? Genuinely curious.
Feels strange at first, then its very handy. Helps unclog the nasal passages. You can even suck on a side passage and spit out what comes out. I once had a piece of string from a corona mask stuck in a side passage and was able to get that out just with my tongue. its also a nice trick so groce out people xD
WTF
